Man stares at pillar of old home vacated for aborted dam project

NAGANOHARA, Japan - Goichiro Takeuchi, 64, stares at a pillar of a roughly 90-year-old home in Naganohara, Gunma Prefecture, on Sept. 20, 2009. He and his wife vacated the house in anticipation of the Yamba Dam construction. They moved to a relocation site before the new administration of Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama pledged to cancel the costly dam project in Gunma Prefecture. (Kyodo)
